#MissionViejo’s soil is so rich that gigantic pumpkins keep sprouting up throughout town. This latest 930-pounder belongs to Kevin Donahue who had to flex his muscles to load it in his pickup truck for display at the Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off, today at the #IrvineParkRailroad. Way to go, Kevin! #giantpumpkin

Tula, the cinnamon-and-black tortoiseshell kitty is one of the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center’s longest residents at no fault of her own. She is quiet, independent playful and simply beautiful. Tula is the perfect balance of engaging and self-content. In the folklore of many cultures, cats of the tortoiseshell coloration are believed to bring good luck. Dating back to Celtic times, tortoiseshell cats have been said to bring good fortune into their homes. If you’re seeking good fortune, visit Tula at the #MissionViejoAnimalServicesCenter. She will go home spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. For more info, call 949-470-3045 or visit http://cmvas.org.

The City of #MissionViejo in partnership with many local nonprofit organizations has launched a community-wide effort to help a middle school in a small Texas seaside town that was devastated by Hurricane Harvey. Port Aransas is a city on Mustang Island on the Texas coast. It's known for its Gulf of Mexico beaches and fish-filled waterways. Port Aransas was among those cities, where the storm roared ashore with 130 mph winds and wreaked havoc on everything from homes to boats to businesses and Brundrett Middle School. Folks in the small town are not wasting any time rebuilding the coastal community, with the top priority of getting the schools reopened. The City is supporting this town and school after learning Brundrett Middle School received the brunt of Harvey’s wrath. You can help repair this Port Aransas school by donating at mvactivities.com or dropping off monetary donations and gift cards (Target, Walmart, Barnes & Noble or Amazon) during operating hours at the Mission Viejo Library, Norman P. Murray Community and Senior Center or any of the recreation and tennis centers (checks can be made payable to the nonprofit Mission Viejo Activities Committee.) #PortAransas#HurricaneHarvey
